Would it help if I explained I've got a RS/6000 sitting under my desk at
work that I'm not about to give up, not even for a Linux box? It's old,
it's slow, and it's been up for well over 6 months. They've been trying to
get me to give it up for over a year now.

I was refering to the ancient RS/6k's about the size of a BA123, that we
still have a bunch. They make good chairs, a bit high, but they're built
like a rock.

Of course don't take any of this as meaning that I actually _LIKE_ AIX!
